Primers

This is one of those lessons you hopefully only learn once. I keep a 5k base stash of all my used primers but I don't reload/shoot a ton. I'm still occasionally finding some at smaller, local shops.

The combination of Covid, new shooters and reloaderd and the approaching election have lead to a perfect storm of shortages. If Trump wins give it a year to begin to settle. If that other guy wins...

Yeah anyone in the stock market better start planning an exit to keep their money.

 

It will depend on brand. Federal SR are pretty soft & work in stock glocks. How much you drop a powder charge depends on where your charge is & what kind of powder. To say 2gr is not true or well informed.

 

Wow. 12 cents each!

3500 primers bulk packed in one box is sketchy!

 

Yeah, 2 grains might be outside the range of min and max for some cartridges and powders.
